Yup, this was it. And mirrored beautifully in Howard's speech to Chuck: "I can't be partners with someone whose judgement I don't trust". Up until now, I think they've been really careful to keep us on Jimmy's side - pulling for the guy who fought his way up from the mailroom, found a grave injustice being done to…

Chekov's Gun. If there is a rifle hanging on the wall, it has to be fired - or don't put it there.
